摘要

The purpose of this research is to explore and analyse whether Indonesian companies' Annual Reports already disclose matters according to the Integrated Reporting (IR) Framework. This research analyses eight IR components. The research method employed is exploratory descriptive. The population is 493 companies listed on the Indonesian Stock Exchange that issued an Annual Report for the year 2014. The data were collected by browsing reports on the companies' websites and checking for disclosure using a checklist consisting of 55 items. The research uses cluster analysis and shows that, on average, Indonesian companies disclosed 53.81% of the IR components in their Annual Reports. This research also classifies the companies into four clusters, with Cluster 3 having the highest disclosure level, and Cluster 4 the lowest. Clusters 2 and 1 have moderate results, and the majority of companies belong to these clusters.
